Everyonewas eyes- widened; shocked to see that Love has joined Yubel and became underher control so easily. But none of them was heart broken and shocked as Jessewas.

"L-Love what are you doing?!" Heasked in shock as Love grinned. "Just joined back my sister. Enough smalltalk, let's duel!"

'What should I do now…? I can't duel her…' Jesse thought as he looked down, Jadenrealized this and became concerned.

"Jesse! We have to duel her! It's the onlyway!" Jaden shouted. "If we want to save Love, we have to duelher!"

Jesse hesitated; he wasn't sure if this couldwork. "But…" He said but before he continues anything, Alexis shoutedin his ears. "She loves you, Jesse! Will you abdomen her now?!"

The words entered his heart like a knife, sheloves him. And Alexis was right, he couldn't let Yubel win, no matter what.

"Fine, Love! Bring it on!" Jessesmiled and activated his duel disk as Jaden did the same. "Let'sduel!"

Love grinned an evil grin. "So, youfinally decided to duel me. A wise choice, prepare for the last duel in yourlife! I'll begin!" She said and drew her first card. She looked at it andgrinned. "Hah, what a beginning. I summon Cyber Harpie Lady in AttackMode!" She put the card on the disk and Harpie Lady came out. However, hereyes were red and her skin was darkened.

"What- What happened to her? She looksdifferent somehow." Jesse asked as soon as he saw the "new"Harpie Lady.

"Simple, she has felt the new power ofdarkness! Anyway, let's continue, shall we? I'll activate now Elegant Egotist!When I activate this card, I can eventually summon my beautiful Harpie LadySisters!" She said and soon two more Harpie Ladies appeared. They had thesame shape as the first one, with red eyes and darkened skin.

"How do you like it?" Love said andput two cards in the spell and trap zone. "Two face - down cards will endmy turn."

"Not bad!" Jaden said as he drew hisfirst card. "But not good enough! Try to stop this, Elemental Hero Claymanin defense mode!" Jaden said and Clayman came out in defense mode."Now I'll put two face down cards and I'll end my turn!"

"Nice try, but I activate this! MirrorWall!" Love said and a mirror blocked Amethyst Cat Attack for a while,although it did continue afterward, Love only lost 300 points.

Love – 3700 Jesse – 4000 Jaden – 4000

"You will pay for that!" Love said asshe put her hand on the place where her heart is, just then she felt painthrough her body and fell on her knees. "Ugh, what was that?!" Loveshouted in pain as flashbacks went through her mind.

She saw herself when she and Alexis met Jessein the café, when she and Jesse sat on that hill and she confessed to Jesse herlove.

'Jesse…?'

Jesse became concerned for Love, despite thefact she was being controlled by Yubel. "Love…are you alright?" Heasked stepping forward.

Love grinned evilly and slowly stood up."Hah, you think such a small attack can affect me? Think again!" Shesaid and drew another card. "Because of the effect of Mirror Wall, I willhave to pay 2000 points or the card will be destroyed. So I'll pay 2000 onlythis time to ensure my safeness."

Love – 1700 Jesse – 4000 Jaden – 4000

"Now I'll summon Cyber Tutu! This lovelycan attack one of you directly, and I choose you, Jaden!" Love said andthen activated one of her face down cards. "But since Tutu only attacks ifyour monsters are stronger than her, then I'll activate Reinforcements tostrength Clayman! Now Tutu, attack Jaden directly!" Love shouted and Tutujumped up to attack Jaden.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, Love! ButI'll activate this, Clayman Charge! When Clayman is being selected as an attacktarget, I can activate this to destroy your monster and Clayman and inflect 800damage to your life points!" Jaden shouted as both Tutu and Clayman weredestroyed.

Love – 900 Jesse – 4000 Jaden – 4000

'Ugh…why is this girl not doing anything!? Ithought she is stronger than that!'

Love fell to the ground, all burned up. Sheslowly opened her eyes innocently. "Jesse…? Jaden…?" She said as sheslowly got up. "What…? Why are we dueling?"

Jesse's face had a smile of joy on his face ashe saw that Love was back to her mind. He quickly ran to her as the duelmonsters disappeared and caught her before she falls.

"Are you alright?" Jesse asked as heheld Love in his arms. "Yeah, I am fine. Thanks…and sorry for causing suchtrouble."

"Don't worry about it; I am just gladyou're fine." Jesse smiled at Love a smile of joy and happiness. But Yubelwouldn't to be beaten so easily.

"You…! You will pay for that!" Yubelsaid and fired a fireball towards Jesse and Love when suddenly Skate Blade cameout and blocked the attack while Jesse hugged to protect her from thedust.

"I am sorry, Yubel! But you have causedmuch trouble already!" Alexis who summoned Skate Blade said with her diskactivated in her hand.

"That's right! Now go Neos!" Jadensaid as he summoned Neos to the field and ordered him to attack.

Neos and Yubel fought for a while but Neos didaway with her after some moments.

'Why…?! Why did you do that to me, sister?! Youwill pay…! You WILL pay!'

Silence took over the place for a while, whenJesse finally spoke up and broke the silence.

"Um, Love…I wanted to tell yousomething." He said scratching the back of his head. Love smiled. "Iknow what is it, you are going to tell me that I shouldn't worry, right?"

Love backed out blushing just like Jesse didwhen she told him that she loves him. "You what?! But…but I thought…" Love couldn'tcontinue; she was too shocked.

"Yes, I do love you. And it took me allthis time to realize it. I fell in love with you since I saw you for the firsttime but I never realized it. Only now I knew it, and I suppose I should thankYubel for this." Jesse said and turned around only to catch Love who threwherself on him to hug him.

Then, she looked at him and he looked at her,and it was the same moment when they approached each other's faces and gaveeach other a sweet gentle, lovely kiss on the lips.

The others only watched in silence, happy thatthis was done already and the couple was happy with each other.
